Standards

• EN 388:2016

  Gloves and arm protectors with the EN 388 rating are tested for protection against mechanical risks like abrasion, cuts, tears, punctures, and sometimes impact. This helps you choose protective gear with the right level of durability and safety for tasks that involve these hazards.

  Test results

  • Abrasion Resistance Level 2

    Withstands moderate rubbing and friction, offering good protection for tasks involving handling rough materials.

  • Cut Resistance, Coup Test Level 1

    Provides minimal protection against cuts from a rotating blade under constant, low force.

  • Cut Resistance, ISO 13997 Level A

    Protects against low cut risks with minimal force, suitable for general purpose handling.

  • Cut Resistance, ISO 13997 Level X

    Provides the highest level of cut protection, passing a specialized test for materials that dull blades.

  • Tear Resistance Level 4

    Offers the highest level of protection against tearing, withstanding a strong force before ripping.

• EN 407:2004

  Gloves and other hand protection with the EN 407 rating are tested for protection against heat and/or fire, including flame, contact heat, and molten metal splashes. This helps you choose products that offer a specific level of defense against various thermal hazards, ensuring your hands stay safe.

  Test results

  • Burning Behaviour Level X

    This product has not been tested for its performance when exposed to an open flame. It is not rated for fire resistance and should not be used for protection against direct contact with flames.

  • Heat Contact Level 1

    Provides protection when briefly touching hot objects. Certified for contact with surfaces up to 100°C for at least 15 seconds, offering short-term protection against burns from items like hot cookware or machinery parts.

  • Heat Convection Level X

    This product was not tested for protection against convective heat, which is the transfer of heat through moving air, such as from a flame. Therefore, it has no claimed performance level for this specific thermal risk.

  • Metal Splash Resistance Level X

    This product has not been tested for resistance against splashes of molten metal under the EN 407 standard. It does not offer rated protection for tasks where this is a risk, such as welding.

  • Molten Metal Resistance Level X

    This product has not been tested for resistance against splashes of molten metal. It provides no claimed protection and should not be used for welding, foundry work, or other tasks with molten metal risks.

  • Radiant Heat Level X

    This product was not tested for protection against radiant heat, which is intense heat that can be felt from a distance. It does not claim to offer protection for tasks involving prolonged exposure to radiant heat sources.

• EN 511:2006

  Gloves with the EN 511 rating are tested for protection against convective cold, contact cold, and water penetration. This ensures your hands stay warm and dry in cold environments, helping you choose the right gloves for working or being outdoors.

  Test results

  • Cold Contact Level 1

    Provides light thermal insulation when directly handling cold objects. This offers basic protection for short or intermittent contact with cold surfaces, suitable for general tasks in cool conditions rather than prolonged exposure to extreme cold.

  • Convective Cold Level 0

    This product was tested for protection against cold air but did not meet the minimum performance level. It offers no specific insulation against convective cold, making it suitable for conditions where wind and cold air are not a risk.

  • Water Tightness Level 0

    This product does not protect against water. Under standard testing, water penetrated the material in less than 30 minutes. While not waterproof, it may still offer protection against convective and contact cold.

• EN ISO 21420:2020

  Protective gloves, arm protectors, mittens, and pot holders with the EN ISO 21420 rating are tested for general requirements like design, comfort, sizing, and chemical innocuousness (ensuring no harmful substances are present). This means the product is safe and comfortable to wear, fits properly, and won't cause skin irritation or other harm during use.

  Test results

  • General Requirements Guide

    Ensures protective gloves meet general requirements for design, comfort, and safety. It guarantees the materials won't harm you, are sized correctly for better dexterity, and are constructed to be easily put on and taken off.

Labels

• PPE Category 3

  PPE stands for "personal protective equipment." PPE Category 3 refers to equipment that is complex and provide the highest level of protection such as powered respirators, SCBA, and full body suits. In Europe, PPE Category 3 must meet certain safety standards set by the European Union, which means that it must be designed and manufactured to protect the user without causing harm. Companies that make or sell PPE must prove that it meets these standards. They also must have a quality management system in place, have to be audited regularly by a notified body and have to have a technical documentation.

• Ecovadis

  Ecovadis rating and certification system is used in Europe to evaluate and recognize companies' sustainability performance. It is focused on the supply chain and evaluates companies on environmental, social and ethical criteria, such as environmental protection, labor practices, and fair business practices. The requirements for getting an Ecovadis certification will depend on the specific category of business and industry, but typically include providing information on the company's sustainability practices, policies and performance, and undergoing an assessment by an independent auditor.

• REACH

  REACH stands for "Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals" it is a regulation of the European Union that governs the registration, evaluation, authorization, and restriction of chemicals. The REACH regulation aims to ensure that the chemicals used in Europe are safe for human health and the environment. The regulation applies to all chemical substances, whether they are used in industrial processes or in everyday products such as cleaning products, paints, and cosmetics.
